Embodiment Construction

[0041]The present invention provides a system, a method, and an apparatus for surveillance, storage, and alerting. The present invention collects, stores, and correlates data from various sensory devices (such as video data from video cameras), as well as meta-data about the collected data, and generates one or more intelligent alerts based on meta-data and attribute data of the devices used to detect the meta-data.

DEFINITIONS

[0042]As used in this Detailed Description of the Invention, the term “video” shall mean video data alone, audio data alone, as well as audio-visual data (for example, interleaved audio and video). Any reference in this specification to the term “video” shall be understood to include video data alone, audio data alone, as well as audio-video data

[0043]As used herein, the term “meta-data” shall designate data about data. Examples of meta-data include primitive events, (including video and audio events), compound events, meta-data extracted from video tips, netwo...

Abstract

An audio surveillance, storage, and alerting system, including the following components: One or more audio sensory devices capture audio data having attribute data representing importance of the audio sensory devices. One or more audio analytics devices process the audio data to detect audio events. A network management module monitors network status of the audio sensory devices and generates network events reflective of the network status of all subsystems. A correlation engine correlates two or more events weighted by the attribute data of the device used to capture the data. Finally, an alerting engine generates one or more alerts and performs one or more actions based on the correlation performed by the correlation engine. This invention may be used to help fight crime and help ensure safety procedures are followed.

Description

REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS[0001]This applications claims priority from U.S. Ser. No. 11 / 746,043, filed on May 8, 2007, issued on ______ as U.S. Pat. No. ______, the entirety of which is hereby incorporated by reference herein.FIELD OF THE INVENTION[0002]The present invention is generally related to security and surveillance systems. More specifically, this invention relates to an intelligent audio analysis, storage, and alerting system having alerts correlated using sensory data from one or more audio sensors, the sensory data weighted by attribute data representing information about the source of the audio data. The present invention may be used to help fight crime and help ensure safety procedures are followed.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0003]As citizens of a dangerous world, we all face security and safety risks. Every day, 30 people die by gunshot in the U.S.—one every 48 minutes. A police officer dies from a gunshot wound every ten days. An intelligent audio alerting sys...
